Can anyone help me, i'm trying to install a tach into my 2000 Accent, i had no problem with the power, ground or light, but the green wire that goes to the ignition coil i think, i'm just not sure where to hook it, a friend of mine had suggested pulling the dash apart and using the wire harness for the dash cluster.

While thats one way of doing it. Looking a the schematics at Hyundai WebTech for the 2000 Accent it would be the grey wire from pin # 8 of the ECU.

(now mind you You have a 2000 Accent so it should be Grey. On older models it will be white.)
The ECU itself is located below the steering wheel.
Removal of the Intrument Cluster how to (http://www.hmaservice.com/webtech/iindex.asp?id=394877965#_394877965)..
I am assuming that the tach is 4 wire set up like in this pic.
